Talents:
The death angels have no talents, and are considered an animal (albeit super-predator) intelligence.

Powers:
Death Angels are extraterrestrials that possess inhuman attributes which allowed them to survive the rigors of space, decimation of most of humanity, and resistances to most conventional attacks. The death angels are pack hunters who solely operate with their inhuman audible sensory abilities. The attributes of a typical death angel are as follows:


Death Angel Physiology:

A typical death angel is impervious to most forms of damage, are superhumanly fast, and can detect even the slightest noise. Typical death angel abilities are as follow:

  • Bio-Armor: A typical death angel is considered to have Am (50) armored skin, granting it appropriate protections accordingly. In addition, the aliens are impervious to temperature, impact damage, chemical/toxins, disease, and radiation at rank. Furthermore, the death angel’s armor acts as ‘sealed system’ for the purposes of travel through environmental hazards (See Limitations). The death angels arrived on an asteroid impact having survived the rigors of space.
  • Enhanced hearing: As sightless predators go, the death angels have a superior auditory system, considered to have Rm (30) hyper hearing. In addition, death angels also possess Rm (30) level sonar and can ‘home-in’ on a sound of Pr (4) or less even at their extreme ranges.
  • Speed: Death angels are considered to have a form of hyper-speed, capable of moving up to 4 areas a round with an additional +2 areas with a simple Endurance FEAT. In addition, Death angels gain an additional +2 melee attacks a round.
  • Natural Weaponry: Claws: Death angels possess natural claws which can rend steel and harder substance with ease. The claws of a death angel halve effective body armor and natural resistances, doing rank damage with each hit. Death.
  • Stealth: Death angels are hard to spot, and as seen can be almost impossible to detect until they are upon prey. As such, death angels are considered to have Gd (10) stealth.
  • Electrical Disruption: Although not explained in the movie, electricity is affected by the presence of death angels, and is considered to be Pr (4) electrical dampening. When in areas that are lit by electrical power, the disruption actually provides a +1cs to stealth checks for death angels and a -1cs Intuition check for characters.


Contacts:
Death angels have no contacts, and are not considered capable of having them.

Limitations:
Death angels are considered highly dangerous, but they do possess key limitations:

  • Vulnerability to High Frequencies: Death angels are nearly invulnerable except to high frequencies, which force an Intuition FEAT or cause them to become agitated and stunned. Additionally, the internal structure of death angels is incredibly vulnerable….and high frequencies force the death angels to reveal their internal structures. Any damage done to the vulnerable areas does +2cs damage and of course is not protected by the death angel armored skin.
  • Sensory dependent: Death angels are completely sightless (and while this gives them invulnerability to attacks that require sight) and as such, are dependent on their auditory abilities to navigate and hunt. Death angels cannot determine specific sounds, instead attacking whatever makes sounds. As such, areas that provide ambient sound (like rushing rivers) are often good camouflage to move as the death angels don’t specify targets. In addition, death angels can be drawn off by louder sounds and quickly ignore sources of lower intensity.
  • Dangerous Extraterrestrial: The world of A Quiet Place has suffered a near extinction of most of the species that can be hunted by the death angels. As such, they are infamous and known to all of its citizens. Any character with Exobiology or Alien Races as a talent would have heard of them, and probably aware of the high frequency weakness.
